The Borexino detector is taking data since the year 2007 and he has detected

a large fraction of the whole solar neutrino spectrum. In particular recently 

the first real time detection of pp neutrinos has been reported.

I will give an overview of the current status about solar neutrino detection 

and in particular I will describe the Borexino results.

The implication about solar astrophysics and neutrino physics will be 

discussed.

In addition the detection of  anti-neutrino from the Earth will be discussed.

I will conclude sketching the perspectives of the next coming year about the 

search for sterile neutrinos in Borexino.
